The City’s Municipal Courts Department will participate in this year’s commemoration by hosting various events that will recognize Municipal Courts staff, educate Houston’s diverse communities, and celebrate the Department’s achievements.

As part of this initiative, the Municipal Courts Department will hosts Mini Court Clinics on December 10 & 12, 2013 at the following District K facilities:
